  1. Honestly, I think if we exit the CL, don't get far in the domestic cups and don't finish in the European spots then Howe will be at risk. However, I think it'd take all of those things happening AND for there to be a good replacement available.
  2. @Rayvin Are they genuinely threatening bans for any negative talk?
  3. I'm pretty sure @Rayvin has the inside scoop
  4. Was walking back from taking the lad to school. Car stops on the other side of the road, the dad is a Burnley fan and he leans out the window to shout "Were you laughing at the scousers last night an'all?" Liverpool's misery; bringing everyone together in joy
  5. Heard on a podcast that Rooney got a red card suspension reduced before a major tournament as well.
  6. I don't think the owners have shown any hint of being impatient. Howe has had struggles before, and even then the current 'struggle' has us midtable despite a calamitous summer, in the QF of the Carabao, and doing well in the Champions League. He's not faultless, but some of the noise has been pathetic.
  7. I'm beginning to feel my opinion on him cement. I don't mind if a player is struggling to adjust and just needs a bit of time, but I've seen nothing from him to suggest he's the right kind of player for us. More and more I'm coming to believe he was a signing made with a mind to play him alongside Isak, rather than just a good player. I'm not fully prepared to say flop, but I've already scratched "Elanga is a FL" into my pencil case.
  8. But Howe isn't going to do that. Evr. Even if he wasn't a big fibber when it came to the fitness of our players, he's not going to give any opponent an advantage by suggesting one of our lot is a bit tired.
  9. Not sure we're going to be in the market for a striker. Woltemade, Wissa, Osula currently at the club. Plus Howe still thinks Gordon can "do a job" up front, despite all the evidence that says he fucking can't. Not sure we'll go after a 'keeper either.
  10. Time has nowt to do with it. You can't hit another person in the face and not get a red. I don't see how this is controversial in the slightest.
  11. A debate? It was handbags, but Gueye slapped Keane. So that's that.
  12. Doesn't matter, it's a violent act. If Gueye had done that to an opponent, an official, a fan it's all the same. Red card offence for violent conduct. It's as much to discourage young fans from thinking it's acceptable, as concerns over risk of injury.
  13. https://youtu.be/BQDSR23B2r8?t=643 Forest fans enjoying Isak
  14. I can understand why the Man City fans are upset. They're marginal calls that went against their team and on another day Man City might have had a penalty and not conceded Barnes' second. But, I'd say that being upset about marginal calls that robbed you of victory isn't looking at what really cost you points. Profligate finishing and a failure to handle the play down the flanks. End of the day Haaland and Foden both missed chances that they'd usually score, and despite Donnarumma's heroics they conceded more opportunities than they should be happy with.
  15. Yeah, Beckham had paper's printing dartboards with his face on, people were hanging effigies.. so far Bellingham has been called a bit of a nob by the press, but in terms of treatment he's not even in the same category as Beckham, let alone Sterling.
  16. Can see us starting Burn and Trippier if they're fit and thus losing any threat down the flanks. 0-0
